A new day and a frest start. I thank God for new daily beginnings everday.
I can't believe it is December 1st. This year has flown by! For me it has been filled with so much Goodness, and yet a lot of Inner Struggle. I am so grateful for all the Goodness and I am dealing with the Inner Struggle. I am learning that Moving forward and not dwelling on the Guilt is what I must do. The guilt is killing me. I have come to realize that I am never going to be Perfect and that nothing in my life will be. My Type A personality doesn't like to hear these words, but I am tired of being my own worst critic. I am learning so much about myself and coming to terms with my feelings. I have learned that Kindness is a strength despite the fact that I have always looked at being kind as a fault....I have often said that "Nice Guys Finish Last". My new motto is that Kindness is a Strength and I know that I am a Kind Genuine Person. I believe that Love makes the world go round and for me giving love and light to people comes naturally. Instead of feeling like I don't often get kindness from people in return, I am letting go of those expectations. I am who I am . From here forward I am going to use my strength to help others with no expectation in return. Because ultimately my soul is happiest when I am helping another person on any level.
As for my Art, I might never make it "big". I might never be one of the lucky ones that is able to put something up for sale and sell it in minutes. But you know what? I LOVE creating. It is in the deepest most inner parts of my soul. It is who I am and to stop doing it would make a part of me die. So I will continue to create with a whole new view. Instead of "working" on my Art, I am going to Play! It is my very own special gift that I can use to escape the stresses of everyday life. I will use it for just that...an escape. If something more comes of it, then I will feel blessed, but I will no longer allow something I LOVE so much make me feel so upset. God has plans for my life and so far I am beyond Blessed with what he has given me.
